The question of how new specified information arises in DNA, far from being an “enigma”, is one of great interest to biologists.

This essay was presented at the November 2009 Theology of Celebration Workshop.

In so doing, he also addresses the scientific robustness and reliability of the RTB model.

Isaac's paper examines three schools of thought regarding the possibility of detecting God’s existence through science: Evolutionism, Creationism, and Intelligent Design.
